Seattle, Washington Territory, March
Ito the Press and Dakota,an: We
ask email space in your paper to an
swe many questions that have been
asked us by friends at Yankton. These
questions are:
What are the prospects for employ
ment in Washington territory?
What are the prospects for investment
in Washington tsrrit Dry ? etc.
We purpose answering briefly.
There are hundreds of men here oui
of employment, who canno get work al
any wages. Seattle is over-thronged
with laborers and Cinnamon.
If you have plenty Of money this is {
very good place to spend it. But if yor
want to keep what You have, stay il
Yankton.
Wages for laboring men are no better
here than farther east.
There is a big bag OF wind N the ess

Meeting of the In~eorporators and a
Generai Discussion of the WorR and
Prospects.
There was a meeting last evening OF
the Yankton, Sioux Falls & Nebraska
railroad company, of an informal nature.
more for discussion than for any positive
action. Judge Bookings. n OF the
Sioux Falls incorporators, was in the
city and the Yankton lncorporators were
called together to exchange views with
! him and receive what he had to offer in
the way Of information. The Judge re-
iterated his conviction that the Duluth
line was destined for Sioux Falls &
Ysnkton beyond a shadow OF doubt and
az the Yankton, Sioux Falls & Ne
braska was organized to lend assistance
to that project, the information was sat-
~isfactory to the Yapkton members of the
company. Judge Brookipgs said the
management of the Duluth line had
thus far asked nothing Of Sioux Falls,
though it was expected that something
in the direction of right Of way would be
requested. No formal proposition had
been presented to Sioux Falls--they
were told that the road was coming and
the surveyors had been all winter in the
field working through heavy snow and
were now within fifteen miles of
Sioux Falls with the permanent survey.
The preliminary survey was made last
fall into and through Sioux Falls and
six miles this side in the direction of
Yankton.
At the meeting a resolution was adopt.
ed authorizing President McVay to APP
point a committeesfrom the directory to
take steps to cooperate relative to q
survey OF the line and order the survey
Immediately, if necessary.
Secretary Harris was instructed to
correspond with bridge builders relative
to estimates for q bridge across the
Missouri.
There was q full attendance OF the in
corporators and it was the most spirited
railroad meeting Yankton ever ex-
perienoed.
